Travelling in who's style?

It is no surprise that me and T have come to another stand still. Our tastes are very different and trying to agree on which one looks nicer is rather difficult. When we sat down to plan the wedding the other night, the subject of transport came up. 

As a little girl I always wanted a horse and carriage and when I saw 'My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding' I fell in love with the idea of the Cinderella carriages. Some people call them tacky but I LOVE them!!!

 

T however hates them, in his words 'it makes our wedding look like a Disney film' which of course is what I want. I then looked in the more traditional way of a classic horse and carriage. Same response. 

Now, when we went to the wedding fair, there were some cars outside that we could hire. As well as the blue Chevrolet that me and my mum adore, there were the more classic cars as such:

And although I used to dream of having a vintage style car the idea seems too popular these days, there is no 'wow factor' involved. I am not 100% ruling out the idea but I'm not to sure I want one. I then asked what T thought of it and he concluded they were to 'pimp like' hmmm.

He then went over to a Bentley and decided he likes it. Me and my mum became quite confused how he believes that the classic cars are 'pimp-ish'  but this isn't:

Men!

Don't get me wrong, it is a stunning car but I cannot imagine me getting into a car like this in my wedding dress! Another thing I notices is that this is the style car that T wants to own one day and personally I don't like the idea of having a car for my wedding that I may be driving around day-to-day in later in life. As I said this point to him, he suggested a Maybach:

I must say it ticks a lot of boxes:

-Spacious

-Executive

-Used is SATC

-Out of reach price

-People will stare

-Glamorous but elegant

But there is still something missing to me. I think I may let this one slide and let T have is way. I'm also sure that my dad won't mind riding with me on the way to the church!!

Weigh in Wednesday: Time to sweat for the dress!

Here is the dreaded post. I recently came to a decision that I don't want to go looking for wedding dresses until I lose weight! I have slacked severely keeping my weight down so there is no time like the present. 

The issues I have are A. I want a smaller tum B. I want to keep my bum the same size but plump it up a bit C. I have no upper strength and noticing bingo wings appearing. 

So this is the first step in achieving my goal, my measurements:

Weight - 13.7 St

             -89.7 Kg

             -189 lbs

Bust - 106 cm

Waist - 97 cm

Hips - 119 cm

Thigh - 70 cm

Upper Arm - 32 cm

The awful evidence:

Not very attractive OR healthy!

Since we go our shop monthly and we have only recently done it, my diet is going to have to wait for anything dramatic. Exercising was the next best thing so I checked Pinterest for help (as usual). I came across two in particular that I though would be great: 

This one is great! There are seven levels that are done each week but you can also move up a level when ever you think is fit. I am going to aim to complete this in six weeks just to push myself that little bit.

 For me this is the start. get the cardio and the butt work out going! I am soon going to add in ab workouts but I don't want to push myself too far just yet. I have tried both of these out today and I must say it was haaaaaard!! A lot harder that I anticipated but hey, you have to push yourself to reach the better goals!

Fingers crossed I manage this!

(This is going to turn into a weekly thing so I can track my progress so stay tuned!)
